thank you for being with us. steven, i will start with you since you woke up so early for us. you work out there and know the town well. how is michael vick going to be perceived and received? >> well, tough, initially, because there are a lot of people in philadelphia that do not believe he should be given a second chance. at the end of the day, this is philadelphia we are talking about. as long as that man scores such towns and doesn't break the law while doing so they will get along. >> people made up their minds about michael vick will not be sue swayed by an interview. what did you see? >> a man that spent 23 months in prison craving for a second chance. that's what makes this so much more than a sports story. have you a country that has 2.3 million people behind bars, and now the most famous ex-felon in the country trying and pleading and begging for the chance. will the people of philadelphia give it to him? that's an open question. >> all of this strikes me as a bit strange. all the women and girlfriends that have been beaten up by nfl players, i have not seen so much
